No. Medicare does not usually cover these types of services. Non-medical home care services, such as personal care, companionship, meal preparation, and housekeeping, do not fall under the category of medically necessary services. As a result, most families rely on savings, long-term care insurance, and other means to pay for these services.

Absolutely. Our care plans are flexible and can be updated or adjusted as your needs change over time. Regular assessments are conducted to ensure that the care plan remains aligned with your evolving needs, ensuring you always receive the appropriate level of support.
In the event your regular caregiver is unavailable due to illness or holiday, we ensure continuity of care by providing a substitute caregiver who is equally qualified and briefed on your specific care plan and preferences to provide seamless care.
Our goal is to initiate care as quickly as possible, often within 24 to 48 hours of the initial request. The exact start time can depend on the assessment process and your specific care needs, but we strive to meet your timeline efficiently.
